Akeal Hosein just took a hat-trick in T20 game

Peshawar Zalmi, batting first, looked like scoring 250.
In step Hosein to take the great Babar Azam.
Later he took 3 in 3 to limit the batting team.

Congrats bro.

If I didn't know which island he was from I would have guessed he was from TT,imagine a bowler from the Caribbean getting a Hat-trick in the PL and only one response,that tells me he is Trini.

Perhaps we judge our own at a higher standard!

For the most part, Trinis are not considered to be “our own” by the rest of the region.

There are exceptions of course.

Gus Logie when he played was almost universally loved throughout the region. Particularly early on in his career. Likely the most popular T&T cricketer ever for the rest of the region.

Larry Gomes was respected, but not embraced by the region. Similar for Ian Bishop.

That’s about it.
